So Much New!

How amazing to revisit posts from over a year ago!  Some how life and probably Facebook took precedence over blogging.  But it's nice to revisit today.  While anticipating writing again, I need to share two important life events.  After an extended illness, last March 7, 2011 my beloved Mom passed on.  Going through the complexity of feelings involving Hospice and Palliative Care had been a struggle but also a refining of my spirit.  I learned to lean on and many days cling to God.  Meanwhile, during this sad time, an indescribably joyful event was also unfolding.  Our beautiful daughter-in-law was preparing to give birth to our third grandchild.  Two days after saying good-bye to my mother, we were welcoming precious Selah Karsyn Grandy into our lives.  Such joy!  Selah means "Ponder God" and we certainly had much to be grateful for with the gift of this sweet baby girl.  Soon, very soon, her first birthday is approaching.  Sweet Selah will be 1 year old on March 9, 2012.  Thank you, Lord, for the gift of such a blessing in our lives.
